CHARLOTTE, N.C. (WBTV) – No matter if you love it, hate it, or don’t care… it’s going to be a topic of conversation.So let’s break it down quickly: Travis Kelce, a three-time Super Bowl champion tight end for the Kansas City Chiefs — is dating music icon Taylor Swift. She supports Kelce by attending his NFL games.The Chiefs play the Carolina Panthers in Charlotte this Sunday, Nov. 24, at 1 p.m. Yes, it’s possible Swift could be at Bank of America Stadium.
But it doesn’t seem likely since she’s only attended Chiefs home games this year.

So for any superstitious Panthers fans, what we can tell you is how the Chiefs play when Swift is or isn’t in the crowd.
The Taylor Swift effect
According to People Magazine, Swift has attended 17 Chiefs games since becoming Kelce’s girlfriend last season. The last game the Chiefs lost with Swift in the stands was Christmas Day 2023.
Kansas City is riding a nine-game win streak and boasts a 14-3 overall record when Kelce’s lady is present. It appears Swift is some type of good luck charm for the team.
And that could impact the Panthers’ chances at winning…so for you stat junkies…this one doesn’t take much rocket science.
The odds are not in Carolina’s favor if Swift were in Charlotte on Sunday.
However, since it appears less likely for her to be in the Queen City — if the Panthers squeak one out — you know who to thank for NOT being at the game.
Champs in Carolina
The Panthers are coming off a bye week and two straight dubs — the team’s longest and only winning streak since the 2022 season.
Conversely, the Chiefs are coming off an L to the Buffalo Bills, the team’s first loss in nearly a year.
Regardless of Swift’s potential appearance on Sunday, Kansas City is favored by 10.5 points.
